In a realm where thousands of higher beings resided, existing in a state that transcended normal comprehension.
Where the temperature and other environmental effects differed every few kilometres, creating microclimates of wildly varying conditions.
All sorts of houses could be seen scattered across the landscape, some made of wood resembling old times and primitive construction.
Some tall and so futuristic even earth can't develop them for a few centuries, their design defying conventional architecture, while some even looked like ant caves carved into crystalline structures.
Since passage of time means little to the higher beings, all of them easily get bored, always needing something new and exciting to occupy their eternal existence.
Which is where the gods and those games fill in, it was exactly from these games that many higher beings were impressed and took houses from, or many other things, copying designs they found entertaining.
